Does Pregnacare Or Ferrous Fumirate Cause Leg Pains ?
I am TTC and using pregnacare since a month. Also according to blood report my doctor adviced me to take ferrous fumirate 210 mg tablets, one twice each day. Recently I have noticed leg pains and it is going bad when I have to stand up for long duration. Is any of the above medicine is a cause for my leg pains?

Hi, i had gone through your query and understood your concerns.
Pregnacare contains19 important vitamins and minerals,vitamin B12 and folic acid. and Ferrous fumirate is iron supplement.
None of the two medicines cause leg pains. As you reported low iron in blood reports is one of the most common causes for easy fatigue and pains which will be treated with Ferrous tablets as you are taking.
Wait for 2-3 months until the problem of iron deficiency get treated.
Hope this guide you. Thank you
